Hi everyone, I just thought I'd post a note on way I've decided to work on a BIOS of my own. The main reason is that we are getting no where. It's not that I don't want to be a part of OpenBIOS, rather on the contrary. But every time I come up with some suggestion, atleast a couple of people will point of how wrong I am, and the result is that we stand still. I find this very frustration, since I feel that we should act now so we can have working BIOS in half a year or so. No one will be happy by us sitting here arguing without reaching anywhere. The greatest problem I see is that we have no real (active) leader, that could take decissions for us and say that this is how we are going to do it, now move!. If things start to move around here later in, I would like to help out, but until then I will go ahead and make a BIOS of my own. If someone happens to agree with my ideas of what a BIOS should be like (should be pretty obvious from my previous posts), feel free to contact me on the above email address. / Niklas
Hi Niklas,
I just thought I'd post a note on way I've decided to work on a BIOS of my own. The main reason is that we are getting no where. It's not that I don't want to be a part of OpenBIOS, rather on the contrary.
This is a clear mistake of mine. I didn't do anything for OpenBIOS quite a long time now.
But every time I come up with some suggestion, atleast a couple of people will point of how wrong I am, and the result is that we stand still. I find this very frustration, since I feel that we should act now so we can have working BIOS in half a year or so. No one will be happy by us sitting here arguing without reaching anywhere.
True. The problem I see is that we are so far at the beginning that we have no clear way to go for now but a lot of ideas and understandings of things.
The greatest problem I see is that we have no real (active) leader, that could take decissions for us and say that this is how we are going to do it, now move!.
Hmm.. I see this problem. I will do this from now on an I'd like to have anyone who could take this when I am unreliable because of my work. Regards, Stefan -- SuSE GmbH Can you afford *NOT* Schanz�ckerstr. 10 to use Linux? D-90443 N�rnberg Germany AlphaPowered

Hello, Umm, I personally don't really know much about what's involved in writing a BIOS, so I can't really contribute on the initial design and requirements generation ( I am opionless ). However, if someone would like to point me in a direction, I would love to start writing some code. Regards, Jim
